Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act

No Cost to Attend - Register Now

Join ClearPath for the next Clear60 event as we discuss the recent amendments to the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act by the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, and how these changes impact employers and their employees.

The purpose of the MHPAEA is to ensure that plans and issuers treat mental health and substance use disorders the same as major medical benefits by not imposing restrictions that do not apply to other benefits.  During this session, we will discuss:

  • The comparative analysis and written report requirement
  • Responding to requests for or challenges to the comparative analysis
  • DOL tool available to determine if these benefits have parity
  • Participant disclosures
  • Enforcement actions and penalties for violation

This webinar event has been sent for approval by the Human Resource Certification Institute and the Society for Human Resource Management to qualify for 1 recertification credit hour.
